Learn about the equipment used to predict natural disasters, including the Richter scale and how studies help predict hurricanes, prevent avalanches, control wildfires, and survive earthquakes. The book also delves into the ancient legends linked to many natural disasters and explains how human activities have caused many other disasters in recent times.
